    well i used to believe that feminism would actually improve the living conditions of women. now i’m not so sure anymore.

    partially that is because of the economic outlook. i have a bad view of the economy in the next 10+ years and deeply believe in a recession. (not because of what Trump is doing, i already held that stance before). women in employment is a phenomenon of the last 55 years, really, starting in 1970, not because women finally liberated themselves, but because the economy (i.e. big companies) launched a psyops to manipulate women to work, because that increases the number of available workers, and by the principle of the market a higher supply in workers leads to falling prices (wages) for human labor. i have that view because i’m disillusioned how much stuff happens in the US purely or mostly because of the economy’s meddling with things.

    i mean, they overthrew governments to get cheaper fucking bananas. who says they wouldn’t launch a few “women’s magazines” and radio interviews to incite women to go to work?

      but i’m deviating from the post:

      the social contract is an implicit contract that says that people take care of each other. it is the thing that defines society, and without it, there is no society. so it must be upheld. i’m pretty sure that the social conflict that “feminism” has started - that says that “all man are bad” - is a severe damaging to the social contract.

      and i just want to note, that if the social contract breaks, civil war might be a consequence, and as always in any war, women would suffer the most.
